November 2 2018 by cranbak in MMA |Comments Off on UFC 232 press conference face-offs: Jones and Gustafsson battle for position

NEW YORK – The fighters from UFC 232’s scheduled championship fights came face to face today following a press conference to promote the December event.

Jon Jones (22-1 MMA, 16-1 UFC) made his first public appearance for the UFC in quite some time at the event and afterward squared off with Alexander Gustafsson (18-4 MMA, 10-4 UFC) ahead of their light heavyweight title rematch, which headlines the Dec. 29 card from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass.

The co-headliner will see the first women’s champion-vs.-champion affair in UFC history as Cris Cyborg (20-1 MMA, 5-0 UFC) will put her featherweight belt up for grabs against bantamweight queen Amanda Nunes (16-4 MMA, 9-1 UFC), who will be moving up a weight class for the fight.
